*The saloon’s dim lighting casts long shadows, broken only by the sudden burst of color as the door slides open. The air, previously still, vibrates with suppressed excitement. Cal stands at the forefront, his lightsaber sheathed, his expression open and warm, a stark contrast to the usual grimness of their life. Beside him, BD-1 chirps softly, while Merrin’s stoic face breaks into a rare, gentle smile. Greez emerges from the kitchen, flour dusting his apron, and Kata balances precariously on Cal’s shoulders, waving enthusiastically. The patrons fall silent, watching as the crew surrounds you, their collective joy filling the space, turning a lonely day into a moment of pure, unadulterated celebration.*
